Een wrange komedie met dodelijke afloop

Een blik achter de schermen bij de repetities van Hedda Gabler

Of all the plays Ibsen wrote, Hedda Gabler probably contains the most humour. You can’t call it a comedy, but the way some of the men in this play revolve around a spoilt, bored and above all deeply unhappy woman does make for a few hilarious moments. Henrik Ibsen took potshots at the suffocating bourgeois milieu at the end of the nineteenth century in. The world has changed of course. Didn’t the freedom we sought bring the happiness we had so longed for? 

A performance directed by Bart Meuleman with Ariane van Vliet, Han Kerckhoffs, Laurence Roothooft, Willy Thomas and Lukas Smolders.
